1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Background: There is a lack of evidence on whether resectable locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC) patients could benefit from neoadjuvant or adjuvant radiotherapy (RT). Methods: Patients with surgically diagnosed LAGC from 2004 to 2015 were retrieved from the SEER database. Kaplan-Meier method and the log-rank test were used to evaluate survival analysis between neoadjuvant and adjuvant RT. Univariate Cox regression was used to evaluate the hazard ratio (HR) and 95 % confidence interval (CI). Results: A total of 4790 LAGC patients who treated with surgery and RT were identified, including 3187 patients with intestinal subtype and 1603 patients with diffuse subtype. For patients with both intestinal and diffuse subtypes, median cancer-specific survival (mCSS) was better with adjuvant RT or neoadjuvant RT. Moreover, patients benefited more from adjuvant RT than neoadjuvant RT (intestinal subtype: mCSS 49 vs. 36 months, Conclusions: For patients with resectable LAGC in the T
